CLEAPSS supports practical work, it's our job to make sure that it can happen. In this session you will particpate in activities that exemplify some of the safety issues commonly seen in primary science. Increasingly advisers and ITE proffessional tell us that they are being asked to provide advice and opinions about safety, leading some to feel uncomfortable. In this session we will summerise how H&S legislation works in relation to primary practical work, explaining the duties it places upon you, the schools and teachers. We will provide examples of when you should and should not comment and what to do when not commenting is the best course of action. Finally we'll showcase CLEAPSS safety training resources which you may find useful in your work.
